Litter Prevention Grants Now Open

Community groups, councils, Regional Waste Groups, and businesses across NSW can now access $2 million in grants to help clean-up and prevent litter in their local area.

Litter Prevention Grants of up to $150,000 are available in four streams including;

  • Council Litter Prevention Grants Program
  • Litter Regional Implementation Program (for Regional Waste Groups)
  • Community Litter Prevention Grants Program
  • Cigarette Butt Litter Prevention Grants program (including for businesses and government organisations)

The Litter Prevention Grants support the litter targets in the NSW Government’s Waste and Materials Strategy 2041 and the NSW Plastics Action Plan, including a 30% reduction in plastic litter by 2025, and a 60% reduction in overall litter by 2030.

Applications for the Litter Prevention Grants Transition Round are open until 8 November 2021.
